OMG NOW WHAT?



Recommended Posts

2 weeks ago I thought I had appendicitis so I went to the ER. After they did a CT scan they said that my tube had come detached from the port and was flapping around inside me and I needed to contact my bariatric surgeon.
I went to see him and showed him my scans last week and he said he thinks the band has also slipped and possibly eroded but he can't know without an endoscopy. So he scheduled one for next week.
However, today I realized my period was late and I just found out I'm pregnant icon_eek.gif I'm in shock and too scared and nervous to be happy.

NOW WHAT??

I have to wait to tomorrow to call my ob and my bariatric doctor... But I'm so nervous! WHat happens now???

Updates? I've had severe health problems since august and i'm sure my band has eroded. It was super tight and in place for over 6yrs. I had abscesses that were drained through my rectal area.

Now all of the sudden I can eat, haven't been able to do that in 6yrs. I'm terrified to lose it but it has already made me septic.

What happened? I need a replacement, 30yrs of proof I have no self control is enough.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
